Council candidates weigh in on housing By Anne Ternus-Bellamy Enterprise staff writer Three separate proposals have now come forward for three separate housing developments on the northeastern edge of the city, and while they are still in the pre-application phase, some candidates for Davis City Council are already weighing in, with mixed reviews. Combined, the three projects would bring between 1,800 and 2,152 housing units to the north side of Covell Boulevard, east of Wildhorse, as well as to the eastern edge of the Covell curve. The latest proposal comes from Reynolds and Brown, which submitted a pre-application to the city outlining plans for “On The Curve,” a development that would feature between 551 and 788 housing units on an 85-acre site just outside the southeast edge of the curve on Covell Boulevard (which turns into Mace Boulevard heading south). The property is designated as agricultural and was part of the original

Legislature OKs online privacy law By Grace Gedye Special to The Enterprise When does a kid become an adult? It’s an elusive question that developmental psychologists, philosophers and parents might answer differently. But lawmakers can’t work with ambiguity. So in the late 1990s, Congress decided that — at least when it comes to surfing the web — kids are
people under 13. Last week, California legislators said: Nope. Kids are people under 18. And if Gov. Gavin Newsom signs a bill they just passed, kids under 18 in California will get many more privacy rights online. What young people encounter on apps and the web has become a source of mounting concern for parents, fed by alarming headlines and new
research. So a bipartisan group of legislators pushed forward the California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act, also known as AB 2273. Passed unanimously out of the Legislature last week, the bill could become a model for other states — or provide a roadmap for Congress, which is considering its own privacy bill. “Social media is something that was not designed with

UC Davis Health is one of three centers in the United States investigating whether using two birth control methods — a birth control pill and a hormonal birth control implant — at the same time might improve both pregnancy prevention and side effects from the pill or implant, the health center announced Thursday in a press release. The 12-month study is recruiting people aged 18 or older who are currently using birth control pills or have a prescription for them and plan to start
taking them soon for pregnancy prevention. “We all want to have control over when we want to start a family and how we achieve those goals. We are looking to see if using these two tried-and-true methods of birth control will give participants greater protection from accidental pregnancy without any unwanted side effects and potentially improved bleeding patterns,” said Melissa Matulich, family planning physician and the study investigator at UC Davis Health.
